// Open Role at Gram Games
Join Gram Games, part of Zynga/Take-Two, as a Senior VFX Artist in London to create stunning special effects for popular mobile titles like Merge Dragons! Work autonomously within a collaborative team to deliver impactful visual experiences.
Who We Are:
Gram Games is the studio behind popular titles like 1010!, Six!, Merge Dragons!, and Merge Magic!, with more exciting projects in the pipeline. We are proudly part of the Zynga & Take-Two Interactive family. We do things differently here: we work in small self-managing teams, giving you an incredible amount of ownership, autonomy, and impact.
At Gram, everyone is expected to have a razor-sharp focus on creating a tangible impact on their team, their work environment, and on the overall company strategy. If you are motivated by autonomy, constant improvement, collaboration, and a sense of belonging, this is the place for you.
We are delighted to be looking for a Senior VFX Artist to join our Studio. As a member of the technical team, your job will involve creating all kinds of special effects based on particle systems, trails, models and other elements.
You will work closely with the technical team members during the development of the game and for the company's Research and Development. At the same time, you’ll work in synchronicity with the art leads to ensure the highest quality and wow-factor of all the special effects inside each project.
